A charming military wife travels back to the 1960s, escaping famine across five provinces before finally reaching the cavalry regiment at the foot of the Qilian Mountains, where she begins her life...
Seeing this, she asked curiously, "Comrade Zhou, what are you looking for?"
Zhuang's mother paused, finding the form of address quite jarring.
Comrade Zhou...
How ridiculous!
"Where's the tap? I need to get some water."
"No, this isn't the capital city, there's no running water here."
Lu Fangfang walked to the water tank and took a look, only to find that it was empty.
She picked up the tin bucket next to her and turned to walk out.
"Hey? Where are you going?"
"Fetch water!"
Mrs. Zhuang was taken aback, then sat down blankly with her toothbrush and jar in hand.
...
"Comrade Zhou, please use it."
After a while, Lu Fangfang returned carrying two buckets of water.
She poured some water into the basin and washed her hands thoroughly.
She endured the pain and washed the wound on her right hand, which had been bitten by a rabbit, with soapy water.
Beside her, Mrs. Zhuang was brushing her teeth diligently.
Lu Fangfang glanced at it, then went to cook.
The rabbit still needed to be skinned, which was a hassle. She planned to eat it for dinner, so she washed some rice and prepared to cook some white porridge.
She felt very uncomfortable with another person in her home, especially a stranger who was hostile towards her.
She placed the aluminum pot on the coal stove, glanced at the little quail, and then went outside.
In the yard, Xiaohua was still rubbing against the pile of yellow earth.
Lu Fangfang glanced at it, but couldn't be bothered to pay it any more attention.
She drew the dagger from her waist, sat on a small stool, and began to deal with the pika.
She sliced open the pika's skin, then took the dagger and carefully cut strips of red meat.
Now that Xiaohua is full, she doesn't want to waste these pikas. She plans to dry the meat strips and use them as snacks for Xiaohua later.
There are also small fish in the enamel basin. After drying them, they can be used to feed small flowers and quails, which can save a lot of food.
"Squeak"
Just as Lu Fangfang was enjoying the dissection, she suddenly heard the door behind her open.
"Comrade Lu, there's something I need to tell you..."
"vomit……"
When Zhuang's mother saw what Lu Fangfang was holding, she immediately covered her mouth and turned away to gag.
